**Thousands of spectators gathered at Khunda village in the northwestern district of Attock, Punjab, some 80 kilometres from Islamabad to watch the bull race.
**
In rural areas, bull race is one of the most anticipated events due to its thrilling and aggressive nature. The traditional competition attracts landlords and farmers from all around the province where the race is held, and they all bring their fastest and strongest bulls in hopes of gaining a reputation.
It also depicts the pride farmers have for their animals, the jockey does not ride but boards on a wooden board and is dragged by the bull.
The participants have to cover a 350 meter course and guide the bull through poles placed 10 meters apart.
I have only seen greyhound as a kid my self.
I know of such races and people betting on them, in the village where my mamon had their lands.
Personally (as a kid too) I felt very unsafe around such raging animals be it bulls in a race.. or dogs in dog fights… So never developed interest to see them.
iss baat par aik picture bhi chispan kar detay to kitna acha hota?
